The captain was great with kids and goes the extra mile. He’s enthusiastic about his profession and clearly wants to share enthusiasm with his clients.

Capt. Kody consistently puts us on the fish! We have been fishing with him for years now and won’t fish with anybody else and Key West. He is great with kids and patient with all of us when we get our rods tangled (haha). Highly recommend booking a trip with First Light! 🤙🏼

Kody is persistent and will not give up until he has put fish in the fish box. We have two charters with him booked this summer and can’t wait.

We fished with Kody back in July 2019 and had to book again when we came back to Key West this year. Our kids have not stopped talking about fishing with Kody since. Let’s just say this guy knows what he’s doing! We always recommend that people book with First Light Charters if they are looking for a great guide in the lower keys.

Booked with Captain Kody after watching him on Landmark Outdoors YouTube channel. He did not disappoint! We filled the fish box by noon with Tuna, Amberjack, Wahoo, Kingfish, Snapper and more. Legendary.

Booked a full day trip with Captain Kody and was very impressed by the entire process. Kody was a great communicator and had 10/10 customer service prior to the trip. He worked hard to put us on the fish even though conditions were rough the morning of. Moving forward I will book with him anytime I'm in key west and looking to fish.

Booked with Captain Kody for a bachelor party and we weren’t disappointed. Four of us were fighting fish at the same time and somehow managed to helped us all land our fish 😂 For real, this guy knows how it’s done. I will definitely be booking again with First Light Charters in Key West.
